Stepside Progress Report
Got some stuff done on my bed this week should have it to the media blaster by monday.
I built a raised floor, no more notch in the bed. 1/8 aluminum floor (still have to sand it and clear coat it). Wheel tubs off of a fleetside chevy cut down a few inches. 20 gallon fuel cell Yes, I'm going to leave the aluminim raw (but cleared) in the bed along with the fuel cell. Should look good with the New hugger orange paint.

Yeah, looking good.
Looks like you made an extra 7" or so of width less the suspension pieces to run some wide wheels. Are you linking the rear? How low are you planning to run? Got any pics of the frame to share?
